Japan ratifies new U S Japan defense pact amid protests
Tokyo crowds protested as Japan ratified the 10 year security treaty with the United States. Government officials framed ratification as strengthening ties and peace, while Communists and Socialists led a large opposition with demonstrations in Tokyo. The pact preserves U S bases for at least a decade and commits U S defense if Japan is attacked. A regiment of troops stood by, but no violence occurred.
